1.What impact will this Act have on road traffic accidents
claims?
The Act is a very short one, just two sections. Section 1 sets
out what it is intended to do; within Great Britain:
(1) To the extent that Article 3 of the 2009 Motor Insurance
Directive (as it had effect at any time) is relevant to any
question as to the interpretation or effect of any provision of
this Part, references in that Article to liability in respect of
the use of vehicles are to be read as not including liability in
respect of the use in Great Britain of vehicles—
(a) other than motor vehicles, or
(b) otherwise than on a road or other public
place…
(3) Relevant section 4 rights cease to be recognised and
available so far as they relate to compensation in connection with
the use in Great Britain of vehicles—
